How are You? I hope You did arrive smoothly in the fresh new year!
I wish You good health and a most wonderful, exciting, amusing, satisfying and blessed year 2009! May it be Your best so far (only to be topped by those to come)!
We were blessed, and impressed when we had the opportunity to hear Samual as a solo act! Looking forward to checking out more in the different capacities that this man worships! Shalom.
Not only does Sam have a great voice, but he writes intelligent lyrics! When he started singing I was mesmerized, and at the event in question his set was too short, leaving me wanting more.
Hey Sam,
thanks for the add. It's great that you're going to open for Michael Sweet this summer. We really need to keep his family in our prayers. That's some great blues on that first track. Keep up the good work.
Blessings,
Mike
Hey Sam! Welcome to myspace! I like your profile pic...it's typical Sam Bowen rock star style. Guitar, sunglasses, sport coat with jeans, and although we can't see them...I bet you've got sandals on! Love ya man, keep makin' good music brother!
Hey Mr. Bowen!
I'd just like to say that you play wonderfully, and whenever I hear you play in church, I go home and practice for a long time because that's how I want to sound!
God Bless!
